Ron's Grief, Harry's Guilt
By: esmtz
As months past Ron started noticing that Harry was acting different than usual around him as well as Fred, George, and Ginny laughing every time Harry was trying to make a move on him but Ron never noticed. One morning Harry was already at breakfast and Ron was still in the common room talking to Ginny.
"Honestly Ron talk to Harry and I mean really talk to him because honestly I think he likes you more than just a friend" Ginny says as she gets her things ready for the day.
"But Ginny I liked Hermione I think he knows that and seriously why would Harry like…"
"Ron seriously he's talked to me about this how long have you guys been friends? For like at least four years and has it ever occurred to you that you were his first real friend and that he's always relied on you to help him out even more than Hermione?" Ginny puts her hands on her hips.
Ron looks at her startled.
"What are you on about Ginny? Did Harry actually tell you that he loves me?"
"Yes he did that's why im telling you this Ronald."
Ron was speechless and shocked. Ginny just sighs and pushes Ron toward the door.
"Go on Ron he's probably finished eating and waiting for you"
Ron leaves and goes to find Harry.
Meanwhile Harry was being bothered again by Malfoy.
"Where's Weasley Potter? Did he decide to dump you?"
"Shut up Malfoy"
Harry, Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle were outside near the Black Lake. Malfoy just smirks evilly.
"Don't worry Potter you'll be with Granger soon"
"What are you talking about Malfoy what do you want?!" Harry gets out his wand just as Malfoy knocks him out with a spell.
Back at the castle Ron was looking for Harry.
"Harry? Harry where are you?" he sighs in frustration as he spots Fred and George and goes toward them. "Hey guys have you seen Harry I can't find him anywhere I need to talk to him."
Fred and George turn to face him worriedly.
"Yeah were looking for him too" Fred says
"We overheard Malfoy talking to Crabbe and Goyle and he said something about Harry and what they're planning to do with him" George puts in "but thing is we can't find him anywhere."
Ron pales now really starting to panic
"You don't think….."
Ginny shows up and frowns slightly.
"Hey guys what's the matter?"
Fred and George tell her about what they overheard Malfoy say and Ginny also pales.
"We need to find him now" Ron said urgently while the others nodded in agreement and decided to search outside.
Once they got outside Fred gave George, Ginny and Ron something to communicate with in case they found Harry and they all split up. Ron was running furiously asking around to see if anyone saw Harry and Malfoy but so far nothing.
"Hang on Harry im coming to find you just please be ok I can't lose you too!" Ron frantically says to himself and with that he runs even faster still asking around about Harry or Malfoy.
After awhile Harry starts to stir and realizes that he wasn't able to move.
'Where am I?' Harry thought to himself as Malfoy showed up.
"Aw Potter about time you woke up"
"What's this about Malfoy?" Harry asks looking up at him.
"Well let's just say im following orders."
"Orders from who?" Harry asked already knowing the answer.
Malfoy sneers and gets on his knees and brings his face close to Harry's.
"...you know who…." He says evilly.
